in such a condition as to make my
speaking out OF the question, at least
for the present"
Colonel Clarke was seen and better
results were obtained. He said: "Only

rett was ever thought of. Garrett has
been trying ever siuce he took the reins
of management in his hands to bring
about his fathers dream-to obtain en-.
trance to New York city, and establish
through connection to New Orleans. To
this end proposition was made to con-
vey the controlling interest of Baltimore
and Ohio to a syndicate, of which the
Reading, Jersey Central, Richmond
Terminal and the Baltimore & Ohio were
all to be parties. Just here is where
everyone seems to have been far off.
The proposition to dispose of the con-
trolling intert st of the Baltimore and Ohio
was made with the distinct understand.
ing that Mr.. Garrett was to be placed
at the head of the syndicate. The pre-
mature publicity given to the matter
has materially retarded the scheme but
has not, think, placed it beyond con-
summation"

A Gard fro an DIR. KurtZ.

EDITOR HERALD-The evening Er.
press and the Times indulged in
remarks about measle. patients being
sent to the pesthouse, and men,
tion particularly case I sent there,
and it seems to please them especially
because I had offended the chief OF
police who had refused to send a police
man to look out for this patient. The
fact of the matter is this: Fred Jessen
came into my office, stated that be was
sick with measles for five or six days,
and wanted to go to the hospital; he
came from Mammoth Tank, Arizona,
and direct from the railroad train to me.
After an examination told him he had
the smallpox, and to convince him ]
called Doctors Worthington and Ross,
who were both ut my Office, and who
also pronounced his case of smallpox,
though mild case. He had several
we'll filled postules on his head, face and
arms, partly umbilicated and ready to
dry up. asked the man to wait o little
while in the rear of my Office while
would call for somebody to conduct him
to the pesthouse; then l tried to tele.
phone to the health officer, but he had
no telephone in his Office. then went
to his office (near 10 o'clock A. ny
and found it locked. l applied to
the chief of police for a man to guard
him or to guide him to the pesthouse,
which he refused, as nobody seemed
willing to perform this duty. But when
l entered Spring street again saw an
other officer engaged in bringing u
prisoner to the jail; thinking that he
might undertake the job, returned to
the chief, and as the man was willing the
chief sent him with me, and he was
kind enough to conduct the patient to
the hospital. Now L presume that
when patient is turned over to an.
other physician, this other physician is
responsible for everything afterwards.
I and Drs. Ross and Worthington were
satisfied that the patient was suffering
with smallpox (varioloid). The doctor
at the pesthouse was convinced that he
had only measles. Is it not fair to ask
why he did receive him in the pesthouse
II he had no pest? 1t is customary in
every hospital to examine patient
when he enters, and more SO hospital
of this nature. If the doctor examined
him there and found only measles about
him, was it not criminal on his part tc
admit the patient? But if the patient
had smallpox was it not criminal to dis
charge him after few days, when he
could scarcely be entirely clear of the
disordery
DR.. Ross has gone to Mammoth Tank
to look after some cases of smallpox
among the railroad employees, and this
patient came. directly from the same
house where those cases are, so it is fair
to say that Jessen had, and probably has
lyet, this disease, in spite of the opinion
of the man at the pesthouse.
Cases of varloloid frequently recover
in eight or ten days, but it is certainly
imprudent to send such q man into q
clearinghouse. Dr.. JOSEPH KURTz.

rILDEN,s SISTER DEAD.
The Executor of Mr.. TiIden,s
Will Denounced.


Will Denounced.
NEW York, March l2.--One OF the
evening newspapers hes the following:
Mrs. Mary P. Pelton, sister of ex-Gov-
ernor Tilden, died at $3.50 o'clock at her
home, 80 West Thirth-4ghth street, of
pneumonia. Mrs. Peltop was IS years
of age and had been enjoying fairly good
health until within the last ten days.
None of the money OF other property
left her by her brother. the late Govern
or Tilden, had been received up to the
time of her death. A special request to
the executor to hurry uH the execution
of the trust so that she might enjoy it
during Hher lifetimes was made
some time ago. bat met with no re-
sponse. Andrew II. Green called upon
Mrs. Pelton short time ago and offered
to loan her some money 10 meet any
pressing necessities, but she replied she
did not care to borrow any more money,
but would like to have what her brother
had left to her. SamuelJ. Tilden, Jr.,
called upon the executors short time
ago, and asked them to arrange the
trusts of his aunt Mary, aunt Lucy and
his mother, oil of whom were
old aud somewhat feeble, in order
that they might enjoy their broth.
er's beqnest during their lifetime.
He said: "Never mind about the younger
folks, we can shift for ourselves. The
old ladies were very m .ch disappointed
to think that they have been treated so
shabbily by the executor" The death
Of Mrs. Pelton may possibly bring them
to their senses. Friends Of the family
say that the heirs have been treated by
the executors more like mendicants than
dead statesman and millionaire.
